Express yourselves
Create public content anonymously through online masks called Personas.
Create public content anonymously through online masks called Personas.
In Kurate you and your peers remain private but post content publicly as a group identity called a Persona. Each Persona has its own characteristics and culture based on the people posting through it.
When a post is submitted, the community votes on whether or not the post is appropriate for the Persona's character. The result is a curated stream of community-generated content.
Posting content through a Persona allows your voice to be heard while you remain anonymous. But it's not a free-for-all since the community votes on whether or not each post is in character.
Choose a Persona that speaks to you. Read the posts and think about the type of content that represents the Persona. Once you get a feel for it, submit your own post for peer review.
Every post submitted to a Persona goes through a curation process, where peers vote on whether to promote or demote the post. You vote on your peers' posts too, developing the Persona as a community.
Earn reputation (REP) when your peers vote to promote your posts. You also earn REP by voting on posts in the direction of the community. The higher your REP, the more you are able to do in Kurate.
In Kurate your identity is private, so you no longer need to fear professional or personal repercussions for simply expressing yourself. Speak freely and earn reputation when the community agrees that what you have to say is relevant.
Anonymity grants people the freedom to speak honestly—from the heart. This leads to a more authentic public discourse because unlike other social media, community members are not incentivized to self-censor.
You earn reputation when your peers agree that content you post is relevant, and you curate their content as well. This dynamic allows everyone to remain anonymous but also accountable for their actions, building community trust together.
